read GMail labels as AutoTags
there is an obvious correspondence here
Perhaps there is some API to get the list of tags on the currently displayed thread or mail blotter
If so, then expose those within ManicTime in some way to match on selected ones via AutoTagging rule

Detect remote desktop connections
It would be nice if ManicTime could detect that a computer is controlled through a remote desktop connection such as through TeamViewer, and give the option to not track that time as active.
I have ManicTime installed on both my home and office computer, and sometimes need to do something on my office computer remotely when I'm at home. In effect, this time gets counted as doubly active, because my home ManicTime client will detect that I'm working in the TeamViewer application, while the office ManicTime client thinks I'm actually on the computer there and working in the local applications.…

Cisco PBX call tracking timeline
Record start/end time, number, name or other identifying information on a separate timeline
The Cisco system (and others, I'm guessing) have web portals (and hopefully APIs) for individual users to access their call records from a central place, but those would require authentication to a central system.
I was able to dial my attached phone from within Outlook and from a company web phone directory, a la Skype, though, so there is some sort of mechanism to control the physical phone itself from the desktop. Hopefully this control would also include the ability to read that phone's call log, rather…

Total in Top Tags Statistics view
I'd like to see a total in the Top Tags Statistic view exactly like how the Day view does. As a salary employee it will let me know if I've made my 40 hours of work for the week.

Ignore 'all-day' and 'free' events on Google Calendar
I've just configured a Google Calendar timeline, and it's showing 'All-day' events, and events I have marked as 'free'. I'd like the option to hide events based on whether they're all-day, or whether I've said 'yes', 'maybe' or 'no', along with the usual 'busy'/'free'. Ideally I'd like to have only events that are not all-day and I've either said 'yes' to or marked as busy.

clipboard tracking
To speed up tagging time with notes and to have another tool to see what I was doing, it would be nice to have a timeline that is tracking what was in the clipboard. Then it would be nice to be able to access what was in the clipboard during a time being tagged, so that as I am entering in notes for the time tagged I can paste items that were in the clipboard.
To give you my real case scenario. I'm an IT service provider that bills by the hour. I see error messages, run commands, and go…

Merge multiple tagged times together
It would be nice if I could merge multiple selected times with same tag (with all the notes concatenated together)
Maybe triggered by an right-click option after selecting a time frame
Or an option to use the concatenated notes while adding a new tag over a timeframe that contains already tagged time
So it would be possible to constantly add short notes everytime during the work, and later tag the whole time, joining the already taken notes together

Pomodoro Timer steals focus: use system tray pop up as an option
Currently, the pomodoro timer opens a window that steals the focus from the current application.
While this might be good to signal the break, it can also affect current work. Especially when working with graphic or engineering applications where a single command might take several minutes (e.g. using a polygon mask in a graphics program), this might jeopardize the work of the user, making the technique inefficient.Therefore I'd like to suggest to implement an option where a system tray popup is shown instead. When the user clicks the pop up, the window to tag the break is shown (as…

Set Reminders in Calendar
Not only recording the past, but also planning the future, i.e. plan tasks and set reminders to start. Later compare with the planned tasks.

Auto ignore auto tags smaller than X seconds
Sometimes, I have several project windows for different customers open at once.
When I switch windows and get the wrong one, I switch again to the right one.
It would be cool if the resulting auto tag could be ignored in the same way as gaps can be filled.This could either be a global setting or a per-auto-tag setting.
Thanks!

Colour code URLs that differ by port with different colours.
When viewing my document timeline I see all the same colour for various client work, this is because it all occurs on the localhost domain (but each client has a different port) so it would be great if urls that differed by port could also differ by colour.

Configurable "Edit" Tag Entry dialog (notes, start, end)
Configurable "Edit" Tag Entry dialog (notes, start, end)
When editing tagged time to modify the notes or adjust start/end times...
A) The ability to configure and pin the items appearing on the right.
Configure: For example, add a custom option for, say, "1 hour" to modify the active field (start, end, duration) by the 1 hour. Start time is active: resets end time to 1 hour later. End time active: resets start time 1 hour earlier.Pin: when "Tags" text box is selected, I could "pin" various MRU tags instead of them floating down the list based on last used.

Clicking an entry on the Timesheet will navigate you to that entry on the Day timeline.
On the TimeSheet when total by 'Day' is selected, I would like to be able to click on a time entry in the timesheet tab and have the application navigate to the first entry on the timeline of the Day tab.
When I performed this action, ideally the timeline would grey or filter out all other tags and only display the tag I am investigating.
When I identify an entry in the timeline that needs adjusted it is necessary for me to make a note of that day, the tag of the time entry and use the date control on…

periodic poll what your working on
I like the reminder to check what I'm working on. However I find it to be to open. Can ManicTime require a reponse? That way I activaly have to say what I'm working on.
I would like to extend the request and also ask other questions; like whom I have consulted for the thing I'm working on, is it planned work or ad-hoc, is it my main work of a supporting task that I'm working on.
I don't want a long survey, just small questions and hence at a different time interval2 votes -
Scheduled Backups should be enabled by default
ManicTime has a feature for scheduled backups, however these are not enabled by default. I started using manic time about a month ago... I just had my C drive crash and lost my whole database, if the backups had been enabled by default i would have been able to restore since my documents are synchronized

Auto-clear filter when lower-left-window is cleared (all items tagged)
In the Day view, if I filter by an application (double-click in the lower-right window).
Then in the lower-left window I clear all the issues by assigning them to tags, I want the filter to clear automatically and go back to the full application view again. You could make this an option if someone didn't want it to happen.
I must waste several minutes per day either going down to the filter box and clearing, or clicking to another timeline and back again to clear it. I can't see any reason why I'd want the filter to remain especially if…3 votes -
Jira Plugin: close dialog after work successfully saved to Jira
Currently for the Jira plugin, when I click Save Work, a window comes up summarising the times logged. When I click Ok to close that window, then "Save tags as Work in JIRA dialog is still showing and I then have to click cancel.
This dialog should close on success or remain open in the event of a failure.5 votes -
Jira Tags - Limit tags available to issues configured, pinned, and used with last # of days
I am currently using the Jira plugin and it works well with the configuration . However one little point that is annoying is that the history of used tags has grown to be years long. This includes the same tag but with notes. This is great for the same day, same week, maybe even month, but beyond that it becomes unwieldy as the newest, most current, unused tags are placed at the bottom of the tag list. If the tags could be the issues that match the Jira tag configs, plus any pinned tag, and then the history of tags…

Option to choose between dedicated tagging screen or standard screen to be opened when clicking on tag reminder
More often than not, I find the dedicated tagging screen more difficult to use than the standard ManicTime interface. It would be good to provide the user with the option to choose which one displays after clicking on the reminder that pops to ask you to tag the last untagged period of time (this reminder, by the way, is a killer feature from my humble point of view)
